Deacury week. Dec 7 prompt: Holiday decorations/Lights.➡ first Christmas together.
_______
-is it ok like this?-
John struggled to put on the last lights around the frame of the outside door.
-no no no...wait, let me help you-
Fred rushed to help the younger. That string of lights didn't sit right, they were trying to decorate that spot several times without avail.
-you remember i'm taller than you, love- John snickered.
-and you remember i am the one who has, at least, a bit of aesthetic sense, darling?- Fred seriously answered without looking.
-alright, alright...be my guest..- said John, his hands up in surrender and smiling, stepping away from door.
_______
-how many guests are we having tonight?-
It was John again who asked once they were inside, all the lights now in their rightful place.
-oh the usual, nothing too fancy, you know me- Fred gave him a vague answer..
-yes i know you, and not fancy isn't in your vocabulary- John inquired, smiling at the other man.
- i assure you, this time, is a small party. I didn't want something too big for our first holiday together...- the older said, matter of factly.
It was their first Christmas together, as a couple finally, after so many years of pining.
- well, it's nice of you...- the younger answered him - i might love you for that, maybe..- kissing the other on the cheek then walking away to the kitchen.
-you might....what...- Fred said a bit shocked -what do you...wait..- his hand was where the kiss was moments before.
John didn't answered further, just turned around and winked, a little grin on his face.
- ..oh you little devil...- grinning back, rushing to follow his lover.
Surely these holidays won't be boring at all.. ❤

It was fast, simple and probably contains so many errors...but doing moodboards is relaxing..
